    On a side note it is one ugly looking building.

    I reckon it'll be gone sooner after it opens. That building just isn't meant to be a restaurant. Not sure if anyone has walked down by the area, but the smell of sewerage at times can be enough to make you sick. The surrounding area of the building looks awful. The main road running along side it will cause lots of noise, and difficulty pulling in/out.
    College students won't bother with it, and the school will get bored off it after a few weeks. After that, it's all down to the passing traffic to pull in and keep it going.

    Is there something going on the kileshin road? A woman in work told me that there's a petrol station and a Burger King and subway going out there? That people are objecting to it.

    The only place I've heard about the Kilkenny road one is here so I don't know what to believe!

    Apple green are putting a service station and retail unit on the Kileshin road and they are running the two franchises on the Kilkenny road.

    Tried it earlier had a whopper meal and the kid had a chicken royale meal, absolutely gorgeous. Needs more seating and subway is yet to open but all in all a welcome addition to the town!! Counted fifteen staff working today, all new jobs for people at Christmas, hope it works out if even just for those people.

    myself and the wife got food there earlier, it was crazy to just get into it. the queue for the drive thru was stopping cars from parking.

    got a festive whopper meal and a steakhouse angus, was yum.

    it was a bit un organised there today but its first day its allowed welcome to Carlow BK :D:D

    Went out there around 9 and left after 10 minutes.

    The drive thru is a disaster. I had to move out of the way to let other cars leave and by doing this i was blocking spaces for people who wanted to go inside. I just gave up and left.
